Custom Year To Date

Hello - 

 

I'm trying to create a custom Year to Date Calculation/Time Series.  

When I create the Custom Measures within Desktop it populates correctly. 

 

YTD = TOTALYTD(SUM(table[sales_amt]),Calendar[WK_END_DATE],"1/31")

 

But when I populate within Tabular Editor and change out the table/sales_amt with  "SelectedMeasure" I get errors/no results. 

any advice is appreciated.  Thank you.

@amitchandak -

 

Thanks for you help. 

I've tried your way as well.  The Dax is accepted, but when I use the filter within the power bi tool it results in no data.

@amitchandak=

I'm able to hardcode the year with the result I'm expecting, but would like for it to be dynamic.

calculate(selectedmeasure(),'Calendar'[full_yr_nbr]="2022")

@atp_2006 ,

 

try like

calculate( Sum(Table[sales) ,datesytd(Calendar[Date],"1/31") ) // Make sue to use date of date Table

 

Create measures like

M1= Sum(Table[sales)

 

 

And create calculation group

 

calculate( selectedmeasures() ,datesytd(Calendar[Date],"1/31") )
